THE DEFENCE OF FISK'S MURDERER
A STRANGE STORX. - "Burleigh," the
Now York correspondent of the Buston
Journal, gives the following outline of
Stokes' probublc defouco:
Stokes bas beon arraigned on un in?
dictment found by tho grund jury, but
ho has not yet pleaded. There aro soma
interesting if not startling positions
taken for tho defenco. The ouu is, that
Colonel Fisk \yus not only armed, but
that tho wound'in his body wus in Hided
by himself-iufiiuted a la Vallaud'ghatn,
in attempting to draw his pistol from his
pocket. That two pistols were used is
very clear, from tho faot that two bullets
wero found-one in Fisk's body and one
on tho marble paveuieut, tho ono buhot
fitting tho pistol found and tho other
uot. The bullet in tho body fitting thu
pistol found, the bullet on the floor,
j I which produced tho wound in the arm,
not Utting any pistol yot produced.
Tho theory is, thut Fisk, coming in
j that door and seeing Stokes on tho stairs,
j attempted to drnw his pistol, when it ac?
cidentally discharged at the samu time
that he received Stokes' bullet in thc
, I arm. The purties who removed tho out?
side clothing of the Colonel are yot to
bo produced in court. The woman who
handed the pistol to tho officer is yet tc
, I tell how it came into hor hands, with
j J other interesting testimony to show thal
Stokes did not fire on an unarmed man.
j j But two persons witnessed tho shooting.
They wore two hall boys of tho Coutral
Motel, who woro either so frightened
that they did not know what wus going
on, or deliberately perjured themselves,
us they flatly contradicted euch othei
11 and their own testimony on tho stand.
A girl of the period comments tims oe
Mormonism: "How nbsurdl four or live
wives to ono mau; when tho fact is, euc!
woman in these times ought to have foin
j j or livo husbands. It would take about
that nuniber to support mo decently."
Mixrko TH? RAGES.-be Now York
Sunday Time? makes the following sensi?
ble comments on this subject:
Fred, Douglass, the colored politician
and Federal office-holder under Qen.
Grant, was rofused accommodation, last
Tuesday, at tho Planter's Hotel, St.
Louis. In his indignation, be made a
bitter speech and retired, nmid the
laughter of tbe crowd. We regret bis
submission to snoh treatment. It cer?
tainly would be wiser in Mr. Douglass
not to attempt to force his company
upon those who deem it objectionable,
but to ascertain in advance what hotel is
prepared to accept people of his coloras
goests. He could do this without diffi?
culty, and thereby spare himself much
humiliation! If he TIOI do it, but
will insist upon throwing himself upon
hie legal rights, surely he oao have no
roason to lament mortifications he so
studiously invites. As a Btudent of hu?
manity, ho onght to know that a mere
Act of Congress cannot change a peo?
ple's nature. The antagonism of race
which exists between the whites and
blacks cannot be extinguished by n Fede?
ral statute. Time will remove it, and
nothing else. It will fade out by and
by, if let alone aud left to work up its
own annihilation; but every attempt to
hurry ap its extinction by coercive mea?
sures naturally reacts, aud so prolongs
tho existence of the prejudice it would
remove.
We do not think tho colored raco the
social equal of the white rune. We
never shall think HO. But it pains our
humanity us muoh to see ill treatment
bestowed on oue us on tho other. Hence
wo should not liku to witness such a
scene us occurred ut tho Planter's Hotel,
St. Louis. But beru let QB ask one or
two not impertinent question!', viz:
Would not Mr. Douglass have been ac?
commodated with n room if ho had con?
sented not to appear ut tho public table
and in tho public parloib? Would uot
the white guests of the hotel hare aban?
doned it, and gouu elsewhere, if Mr.
Douglass had .so appeared ou a footing
of equality at the table and in tho par?
lors in question? Were tbe proprietors
of that hotel called upon, by common
sense, to .sacrifice their business in order
to gratify Mr. Dougla' leeiro to min?
glo with white people, i?. ."hom his pre?
sence was obnoxious? Tho Aot of Con?
gress takes none of these things into
consideration. It was a party measure,
and was passed for a purtisau purpose.
But even the Republicans who voted for
it practically repudiate it upon almost
every occasion. For aught that we know
to the contrary, the proprietors of thc
Planter's Hotel ure Republicans of that
kiud. In time even they may get stifli
cioutly over tho prejudice of caste; but
they certainly will not be much led
thereto, nor would anybody else, by
such aggressive movements as Fred.
Douglass appears to delight in.
A little modesty will go a great way,
sometimes, towards conciliating thoso
who ure governed by reasonable or un?
reasonable antipathies. We advise Fred.
Douglass, therefore, to study iEiop'B
fable of the sun and wind. It may do
him good iu his dealings with tho white
race hereafter; for surely he ought to
know that President Grunt and his po?
litical advocates will not attempt a cru?
sade on his account, in view of the
proximity of the Presidential election.
He could not persuade them to do any?
thing BO satisfactory to their political
antagonists.
INDIGNANT COLOBED M KN IN PHILA?
DELPHIA.-At u meeting of colored mon,
held in Philadelphia, to endorse Senator
Sumner's supplemental civil rights bill,
one of the speakers, named Weir, sail:
To-day, a black man, if he arrives in
the city of Brotherly Love, ia not ad?
mitted to oue of the hotels, and yet tho
people of the North expatiate upon the
sacrifices that they, with sword in hand,
have compelled others to make. How
easy it is to compel otbors to revolution?
ize their laws and systems, while those
who compelled the change still cling to
the relics of slavery. Reformers are in
the field, they aro marshaling their
hosts, but they say nothing for us, they
are doing nothing for us; they are strain?
ing at goats and swallowing camels.
Another speaker, named Purvis, re?
marked:
Investing tho colored man with the
ballot was simply saving the lifo of tho
Republican party, and that ballot to-tlay
is used to keop that party in power.
What is tho reward? There are four
colored men turnkeys in station houses.
They did not ask for appointments, hut
for justioe. The Republican party owe
them placo, position and power, and ho
demanded thom.
As fur ns the appointing to office is
concerned, says the Baltimore Sun, the
colored race has reooived more from the
', Conservatives of Virginia than from tho
? professional philanthropists of Pennsyl?
vania. lu the moro important matter of
provision for their education, thu Vir?
ginia Conservatives havo outstripped
uny other State.
Discoveries which promise to be as in?
teresting os those of the old lako dwoll
' inga, in Switzerland, have recently boon
1 made in the Sonth of Franco. Among
the Pyrenees Mountains, at a short dis
' tance below tho sui face of the ground,
' the romains of ancient cities have been
1 found, which are presumed to belong to
! a pro-historio ago. The houses aro of
' the Burne character as those of tho Swiss
lakes. Investigations are making, the
I result of which has not yet boon an
I non need.

A NEWHAILHOAD PHOJHOT.-The Aahe
rille (Ni O.) Citizen saya: "A bill ie be?
fore Congress asking a grant of 2,000,000
acree of the public hinds, worth $4,000,
000, to build a railroad from Spartan
